This resulted in a decrease in <br /> the unit count from 118 to 112. Individual meetings with the DRB <br /> members indicated that their concerns had been met. Planning <br /> Commissioners Berger, Hovingh and Horan found the project good but <br /> indicated that they wanted to see it somewhere else because they <br /> felt strongly that the site should be for a very high density <br /> low-income project, which was staff's position from the start. <br /> She stated that the developers had commissioned a market study <br /> which said that this would be an excellent site to provide a <br /> transition type housing that would bridge the gap between attached <br /> housing and conventional single-family housing, given its location <br /> with a mixture of adjacent uses including single-family units, <br /> apartments, condominiums, retail and offices. She added that the <br /> project has a density of 8.2 units per acre, with well-designed, <br /> detached units that provide private outdoor space. <br /> <br /> Mr. Brandes asked Ms. Buxton if she felt that most of the <br /> concerns of the DRB had been met. <br /> <br /> - 6 - <br /> 3-20-90 <br /> <br /> <br />
